just opened 3 weeks ago in Chicago from LA & NYC 📍 West Loop What a cool & unique activity! We chose the shoot & spin, their most popular experience Highlights: ✔️ Large enough space for 40 people ✔️ Amazing colors to choose from , including golds & silvers ✔️ Friendly staff that walked us through everything ✔️ Different sizes of canvas, including 3 stacked together ❤️ ✔️ Great stress reliever, shooting airsoft/BB 💪 We picked colors that complement each of our homes, and mixed new colors from the original 4 that we chose (Dark Green, White, Gold Black) If you have any parties, birthdays, dates, or office parties coming up, I highly recommend this! Especially since it's getting cold soon 🥶
